Whether it’s your cousin or your godfather, your next-door neighbor or your coworker, it seems there’s an incredible dad everywhere you turn: The office executive who gets into work at 6 a.m. so he can leave early to pick up his kids from school every day, or the dad who blocks off every Sunday night so he can go shopping for groceries and assemble 10 different school lunches for the week ahead.

For the father who’s a true coffee enthusiast—in our case, our cousin worked as a barista in college, has cupboard full of Starbucks cups collected from around the world, and is always trying out the latest cold brews at the supermarket—here’s our carefully-curated gift list.
